Re: [NTG-context] Use a counter in a reference?

I have a need to tag elements in a text in a way that they are sequentially numbered and can have references to refer to them. Something like:

Here is some \tag[tagref]{\bf text} that is tagged. . . . Refer to tag \tagnumber[tagref] on page \at[tagref].

What is the best way to do this in ConTeXt? I’ve got a counter for tag number, but I’m not sure how to use \reference so that it uses my tag number. For instance:

\definecounter[myTagCounter] . . . \reference[tagref]{\rawcountervalue[myTagCounter]}

Doesn’t work. But perhaps I’m going about this incorrectly?

Thanks in advance!
